Godspeed was one of the three ships of the English East India Company led by Captain Christopher Newport on the voyage that resulted in the founding of Jamestown in the new Colony of Virginia in 1607.
Huh? How old a release are you talking about. Sure, at some point they stop releasing patches for older versions of the OS -- you can't honestly expect them to maintain it forever
If they go on about how Mac is superior to standard PCs etc. (see their MacIntel adverts as a example), I expect them to at least be comparable to their competition. Microsoft are still supporting some 6 year old stuff.
I won't mention the free Linux/BSD systems in this as, while yes, they are generally supported a lot longer (older versions of the kernel), it's not really controlled by buisness decisions.
But after a certain point you can't expect them to make a version of the patch for every release of OS X since the Public Beta, just because somebody out there might be running it.
Well, I'm certainly not saying give out insane amount of support like Sega did, which were still giving out support and producing games for the megadrive when they were still producing consoles.
That's not too bad at all, for a consumer desktop OS. Windows appears to provide longer (five years, then start phasing it out if I recall correctly).

I doubt it runs on MacOSX 10.0 or 10.1... Now if we had someone to confirm the compatability.
Actually the RFCs if I recall correctly just stated that the mailserver had to accept mail to those addresses if it accepts incomming mail at all. Not that anyone had to read it, or that it had to goto some 'real' mailbox.

I'd then go, "Oops, silly me, I better dial 112"
New York certainly believe subways should have cell phone access. :(
Wouldn't you need licenses from the FCC and such for broadcasting on those frequencies anyway?
Maybe he's that guy that sued God, and won.. From a movie I saw some time ago.

Technically it's not being jammed.
Secondly, 9-1-1 doesn't work everywhere. 1-1-2 does though.
I hate advertising more than phonecalls and messages. So it's all good.
That fool, they should of used 112.
Actually mobile phones would send out more destructive signals that could mess up with a catscan if they can't get a stable signal.
The cause of death would probably be from scary part in the movie of the cinema they're sitting in.
Why does your daughter need the radio waves blocked in her room anyway?
So far the only thing I can come up with, is if she's afraid of radio waves entering her brain.

And yet you are a Hotmail user.
So, we should just tell other companies to advertise they're 'easy to use' ?
I'm introducing a pay per Slashdot post system, no need for silly protocol fees.
Hey, AOL doesn't accept mail from dynamic IPs, even if they match SPF records.
Evidence of God is inconclusive.

Actually there is no law stating that you can't use the same license key on every computer. Just that every computer has valid software licenses.
You need to clean your shift key more.
Oh no! I used that link twice.
Will our hero survive?
I'm having a issue finding how the alternative they have linked is owned by them, any evidence I've missed?
Paypalsucks.com disagrees with you.
